Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a board often means lifting boards to reach it, finding a board that matches and laying it all again. Repairing it works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Halesworth

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Engineered wood
  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Laminate flooring

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Halesworth

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Halesworth. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Halesworth

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair a scratched laminate floor?

Yes. Scratches and chips are filled and matched to the pattern.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the damaged area.
  2. We fill dents, chips and gouges.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
